Common FAQs for Verkada Command Platform

How does Verkada Command differ from traditional video management systems?

Traditional video management systems typically require on-premises servers, specialized client software, and complex network configurations. Verkada Command eliminates this infrastructure with a cloud-based approach that requires no NVRs, DVRs, or on-site servers. This dramatically reduces IT overhead while providing superior functionality through a browser-based interface accessible from any device. Additionally, Command unifies all security devices (not just cameras) into a single platform, eliminating the need to manage multiple systems for different security functions.

What happens if internet connectivity is lost?

Verkada's hybrid cloud architecture ensures continuous operation even during internet outages. All critical security functions—including video recording, access control decisions, and alarm monitoring—continue functioning normally using local processing. Each device stores data locally (with cameras storing up to 365 days of footage) and automatically synchronizes with the cloud once connectivity is restored. While remote access to live feeds requires internet connectivity, no security functionality or data is lost during outages.

How secure is the Verkada Command Platform?

Verkada Command implements multiple layers of security to protect your data. All communication between devices and the cloud is encrypted using TLS 1.2 or higher, while stored data is encrypted using AES-256 encryption. The platform enforces role-based access controls, supports single sign-on integration with leading identity providers, requires multi-factor authentication for sensitive functions, and maintains comprehensive audit logs of all user activities. Additionally, Verkada undergoes regular security audits, penetration testing, and maintains SOC 2 Type 2 compliance.

Can Verkada Command integrate with our existing security systems?

Yes, Verkada Command offers various integration capabilities through its comprehensive API and specific integration partnerships. The platform can integrate with identity management systems, communication platforms, business intelligence tools, and other operational systems. Verticomm specializes in creating unified security ecosystems that leverage these integration capabilities to enhance overall protection and operational efficiency, allowing you to preserve existing investments while transitioning to a more modern security architecture.

How difficult is it to scale the system as our organization grows?

Scaling Verkada Command is remarkably straightforward. New devices automatically inherit appropriate settings and permissions when added to your organization, with no additional servers or infrastructure required regardless of how many devices or locations you add. The cloud-based architecture accommodates unlimited growth without performance degradation. Verticomm handles all aspects of system expansion, from planning and procurement to installation and integration with your existing deployment, ensuring seamless growth as your security needs evolve.

How can we access the system when away from our facilities?

Verkada Command provides secure remote access through any web browser or via the dedicated mobile app for iOS and Android devices. No VPN or specialized software is required—just standard internet connectivity and proper authentication. The mobile app offers nearly all the functionality of the browser interface, including live viewing, recorded footage playback, door control, alarm management, and alert notifications. This enables security personnel to respond to incidents even when off-site, significantly improving response times and operational flexibility.
